"optional" x5

It says 100 words max but then the box to type your answer says 500 characters max. Should we keep it to only 500 characters then? That's hard to do!

Is there a hard stop in terms of the box when it comes to characters?

It lets you type over the limit but then it tells you in red how many characters over you are. I don't know if it'll actually let you submit. I kept it to under 500 since the directions on the site state both 100 words and 500 characters. Also nothing is ever optional...lol

Doesnt let you submit unless strict 500 character limit met

So I guess the 100 words max limit in the prompt is an error? Just FYI, 500 characters = 250 words, not 100 words.

Nope it's like 3 sentences max and around 100 words (depends on your word choice I guess)

Oh wow. I had no idea. 6 out of the 10 current residents are UW graduates and 3 out of the 4 spots went to UW students last year

Also FYI one of their four spots this year will go to someone who has already finished intern year

Is this University of Washington or University of Wisconsin? Did they mail the supplement?| University of Washington. Not all applicants received the supplement :(

Wait, so the University of Washington supplemental did not go out to all applicants?
